Marsha Linehan Psychotherapy Resources

Marsha M. Linehan is a psychologist, researcher, and the developer of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), an evidence-based approach widely used to help people manage intense emotions, self-harm, suicidal behaviors, and difficult relationships. Her books and workbooks give clinicians, counselors, educators, and clients practical tools for building skills in mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Many of her resources are designed for direct use in therapy and skills-training settings, making them especially useful for professionals who want structured, research-based materials they can apply with clients. Her work has become a foundational part of modern behavioral health treatment, particularly for individuals with complex emotional and behavioral needs.
